Crucially, these values are embedded in our legally binding national and international human rights standards. We must all commit to giving nothing to racism and Islamophobia, in line with the commission's campaign. At every chance we must promote and maintain harmonious relations and ensure the protection of human rights for everyone. Our country must become a global champion of anti-racism, anti-Islamophobia and human rights for all. Paul Hunt is the Chief Human Rights Commissioner at the New Zealand Human Rights Commission and formerly an independent human rights expert with the United Nations.
